EVENT

Breaking Into the Children’s Book Market

October 12th, 2025

📚 Overview

The children’s book market is thriving, and as with any other genre, trends are constantly changing. To publish a children’s book, you need to have a good understanding of the current market — in other words, what books children and their parents are buying.

During this one-day session, you’ll hear directly from literary agents, editors, and other experts in the children’s book industry. You’ll learn about trending topics and art styles, which publishing route to go down, and marketing strategies from people who have recently written and published children’s books.

If you’re looking to publish beautiful and inspiring books for young readers, join us for a packed day of presentations, panel talks, and Q&As where we break down what you need to know about publishing a children’s book right now.
